402 Intimidating

“Come back,” Chu Yang said indifferently as he kept his pistol.

Fatty Zhang could only turn around. He was so terrified that tears and snot were flowing down his face, but he didn’t dare to wipe them away. Like a robot, he walked back into the room in despair.

Just a moment ago, Chu Yang’s bullet had whizzed past his head.

If it had been a few centimeters lower, the bullet would have gone through his head.

“How boring.” Chu Yang shook his head. He looked at Cao Xing, who was sitting opposite him, and then at the petrified crowd around him. He felt somewhat rueful.

The person he had pointed a gun at previously had been Bai Hong.

However, Bai Hong was different from these cowardly villagers.

Bai Hong had admitted defeat in a straightforward manner, and he was even prepared to die.

Even though Chu Yang had won, he still held Bai Hong in high regard.

After Bai Hong became Chu Ning’s bodyguard, he was even more assured.

“Don’t be afraid, everyone. My toy gun isn’t that powerful. I’m here to bring it up the mountain to hunt, but it’s okay to show it to you in advance. My shooting is pretty accurate, isn’t it?” Chu Yang took a sip of tea and said with a smile.

Cao Xing, who was standing at the side, could not hold back in the end. His throat was too dry, and he swallowed after Chu Yang finished speaking.

“Village Chief Cao, drink some water if you’re thirsty. You’re the host here, and I’m the guest. Speaking of which, I still have to listen to you,” Chu Yang said casually.

“Drink up. My brother told you to drink up. Don’t worry, it’ll be fine,” Chu Se said with a smile.

With Chu Se’s ‘encouragement’, Cao Xing licked his lips. He picked the teacup up with trembling hands, but after some thought, he put it down.

He was still afraid.

Afraid from the bottom of his heart.

Who knew if Chu Yang’s gun would be pointed at his head in the next second?

“Drink up!”

Chu Yang bellowed. This sudden change frightened almost everyone present except for Chu Se.

They felt their hearts stop for a moment.

“I’m sorry. I deserve to die. I’m not human…” Cao Xing was so terror-stricken that he fell from his chair.

He knelt in front of Chu Yang and kept kowtowing. As he kowtowed, he kept talking, begging for Chu Yang’s forgiveness.

“Village Chief Cao, you don’t have to be like this. I’ve already said that you’re the owner of this place. By the way, what were you guys talking about just now? I forgot again. Tell me once more, I can help you.” Chu Yang spoke sincerely as he sat on the chair and bowed to Cao Xing.

“I … I’ll turn over a new leaf and be a good person. If I can’t do that, I’ll be struck by lightning when I go out and choke to death when I drink water!” Cao Xing looked at Chu Yang with a pleading expression as he swore.

“Ah, Village Chief Cao, I don’t really care if you’re dead or alive.” After Chu Yang finished speaking, he pretended to be in deep thought.

“I’m here to offer my condolences. Village Chief Cao, do you understand what I mean?” Chu Yang said softly.

“I understand, I understand!” As Cao Xing spoke, he was about to stand up. He already knew what to do next.

“Huh? Did I allow you to stand?” Chu Yang asked, suddenly looking at Cao Xing with a puzzled expression.

“It’s not convenient for me to move around like this, and I won’t be able to satisfy you.” After hearing Chu Yang’s words, Cao Xing knelt down on the ground obediently and spoke fawningly.

“We didn’t ask you to stand up and act,” Chu Se suddenly spoke.

It was impossible to deal with these people without using some ruthless methods.

He had to make them feel fear from the bottom of their hearts.

“What do the two of you mean?” Cao Xing could not care less about his dignity. In such a situation, survival was more important.

If he died, he would have nothing.

“What were you guys trying to do before?” Chu Yang looked at the crowd and asked despite knowing the answer.

“We… were going to Old Chu’s house to offer our condolences. I’m very sad about his death and didn’t sleep well last night.”

Cao Xing, who was kneeling on the ground, cried out with snot and tears covering his face. If someone who did not know the truth saw this, they would really believe his nonsense.

In order to survive, Cao Xing would even distort the truth, let alone go against his conscience.

“Good! You said it yourself.” Chu Yang looked at Cao Xing with admiration.
